FIRST AD RELEASED BY “NO ON V” COMMITTEE: Ad Calls for Rejection of Out-of-State Meddling in South Dakota

FIRST AD RELEASED BY “NO ON V” COMMITTEE:
Ad Calls for Rejection of Out-of-State Meddling in South Dakota

Pierre – Today, South Dakotans Against V released an ad exposing the real masterminds behind the so-called “nonpartisan” election amendment.

“South Dakotans don’t need to be told how to govern by big, hidden money from out-of-state,” said Will Mortenson, Chairman of South Dakotans Against V.

More than three-quarters of Amendment V’s contributions are coming from outside the state, including more than 70% from a single organization in New York that does not disclose its donors. The New York-funded effort attacking South Dakota’s political system is led by a billionaire Obama-fundraiser and former Enron financier, along with other hidden, out-of-state donors.

“We need to stand up to the New York billionaires and out-of-state interests who are working with Democratic Party Bosses in South Dakota to destroy our state’s ballot transparency and long-time political traditions,” Mortenson added.

The Chairman of the Yes on V Ballot Committee in South Dakota is Democratic Party Boss and failed 2014 U.S. Senate Candidate Rick Weiland.

“Since he can’t win elections in South Dakota, Party Boss Rick Weiland is trying to confuse voters by hiding party labels on the ballot,” said Mortenson.

Amendment V hides party labels on the ballot and puts a California-style merged primary in South Dakota’s constitution. Vote NO on Amendment V in November.

I realize some Democrat millionaires are for this, but are actually rank and file Democrats in South Dakota that ashamed of their party label to back this? I would bet some Democrats would oppose this but maybe not

How many times do we have to beat Slick Rick? before he goes away! Instead of taking on either Sen. Thune or Rep. Noem…he sold out his loyalty to the party and decided to go get in bed with the very money he rails against=hypocrite!

Very interesting to see what SoDak Republican’s are afraid of. Very telling of the psychological make up of your voters and the collective self esteem. It’s quite easy to overcome, really. It’s accomplished from inside. Read Sun Tzu.

Interesting you would introduce Sun Tzu in the context of political discourse and the democratic process as it seems to infer those who disagree with you to be enemies (“deplorables”?) only fit to be destroyed, even by deception.

@Anonymous 9:04 I’m not telling you what to do or do I care what you are afraid of (outsiders, ridicule, new things and ideas). I’m telling Democrats how easy it is to beat you, with the Sun Tzu approach, method, patience and dedication. The seed has already been planted and the future is ours.

There are a lot of ballot measures. It’s hard to keep them all straight.

I just heard a Marsy’s law ad on the radio that was trashing SD’s crime and safety for victims. Isn’t that trashing Jackley? If I was running for governor I wouldn’t want a million $ in ads saying SD is weak on crime victims rights before I ran for governor.
